Hello

I have been trying to calculate the balance point. After Brambles reply I dropped the academic approach and simple inserted two 24 inch metal rods weighing the difference between the 16 gauge and the new barrels. This gave me a total weight of 10.4 Lbs (so much for my prior calculations) and a balance point just short of 3 inches in front of the hinge. The final balance point will be less than that as the 16 gauge barrels are 28 inches.

Regarding the barrel contour the data from Bramble and my own 16 gauge taper from the breech towards a point several inches from the mussel and then taper out. Do anybody know why? Is this pure cosmetics or does it have a function?

I have taken off the ribs from the old barrels and can see that the barrels are not parallel. When reaming the monoblock should I keep the angle or should it be reamed so the new barrels are parallel?

Regards
